If you are willing to send and receive a present from John, then he can play. I won’t pair anyone with a guest without their permission though.

Sure, I’d be more than happy to. That might be the only way we can lure in good, new talent to the Dope. Dangle Xmas goodies in front of them.

Repost: I like perfume oils, incense, scented candles, wax melts, candy(chocolate/licorice/), caffinated flavored tea/coffee, dips, cookies(chocolate chip or peanut butter), Yu-Gi-Oh, Duel Masters and oil burners.

I like snowglobes.
I like books.
I like funky silver earings.

And pretty well everything else that isn’t an X-mas ornament.

[Gail]

I loved doing this last year!

Here’s what I like:

Cats
coffee, coffee flavored stuff
chocolate with nuts
snowmen
cooking
yoga
T-shirts from your area…size medium
music–love alt-rock…and lately Audioslave
Note: I’m a vegetarian, so no Hickory Farms summer sausages, please.

Pink stuff

[PapSett]

This will be fun !

I like :

Scented candles (Honeysuckle , rain , pine… fresh scents)

Anything horse-y

Fun mugs with animal designs

I collect meerkats

dog toys (Gotta keep the kids happy !)

cute frog figurines

anything with a Gordon Setter or Papillon on it

8 X 10 picture frames (for dog show pics , of course !)

I’m really very easy to please

I’m on the lst but here’s a recap of my wish list
cat things
rose things
music things
things made of brightly painted wood
things made of pewter
funky retro chic dangly pierced earrings
if you are able to combine any of the above, so much the better
nothing edible please, the weight is coming off and I’d like it to keep doing so, thanks

Repost:

I like bath stuff, Hello Kitty, any of that girly crap…I’m just getting into knitting, so any supplies would be great. Anything local would be neato mosquito.

Thanks, Omega Glory!

[welby]

On the list.

Anything weird that I can put on the bookshelves in my pool room would be good.

Past gifts that were excellent for this:

The Toy Story Slinky dog, an egg timer with a floating glass thing in it, Jetsons Happy Meal Toys.

[pretend_my_name_is_witty]

Right, here’s what I said last time:

@erm...myself

E-mail sent! Pretend My Girlfriend is Witty pointed this thread out to me (whilst lurking, I’ll get her to join soon…), so we’ll be doing this together and attacking it from two fronts. So whoever is our SS, we’re not expecting a present each (if we’re not greedy, we’re good and get more, right? Seriously though, anything will be gratefully received).

We’d like something quirky, hopefully something with local relevance from wherever our SS lives. Tasteless tacky things will be perfect, something with less actual value but meaning will be a break from the expensive but worthless tat that you have to tell your friends you love each year.

Right, we look forward to finding out who we’re shocking on the 25th!

[picunurse]

Re-post- wish list.
Bath stuff, home-made yummies, kitty stuff, used books are good, gel pens, glass crafting stuff, or whatever you think, I’m pretty easy…(to shop for, shut-up )

That’s not very secret though…

Don’t worry about me. I’ll either pay or amscray…

I vote for “pay” – I’ve been liking your posts.

I think you should stick around. I like your posts so far too. Then you can get a super secret Santa like all the members.

[anyrose]

I vote for “pay” also - i like your screen name - hate to see it disapear

[Nature_s_Call]

I’m in - (phew almost missed this one!)

Profession: computer programmer - the ideas must be flowing now, eh?
Nationality: Canadian (didn’t the eh give it away?)
Gender: Male
Status: certifiable - oh, married with children
Turn ons: … sorry, got carried away there.

---

Must overcome reluctance to post “preferences” (always hated parents asking “what do you want for Christmas” on one hand, while on the other drilling how impolite it is to request things) but since you asked…

I’m a gadgety guy who loves practical jokes. Something like a whoopie cushion would not go unused, if you know what I mean.

If you have a spare Straight Dope mug… whoo hoooo! SD book signed by Unca Cece? so much the better (I keed - not)

[Nature_s_Call]

Almost forgot… A Chess-problem-a-day calendar! My wife always got me one of these for years - then, at least in our area, they became unavailable.

Can’t wait to go shopping for you… this is more fun than I thought it’d be!

seconded (or sixthed? - lost count)

I didn’t know who John Stamos was before (by name)… not sure what the rest of him would think of his left ear’s doings, and his right ear must be jealous.

[Shirley_Ujest]

Repost for me:
Anything local or handmade (edible, wearable L-xl)
coffee
chocolate
knitting stuff
ornaments ( local is way cool)
Fun socks ( my feetsies are a size 7.5)
I’m anxiously awaiting my SS info so I can go shopping!

[Omega_Glory]

Just so everyone knows, the original Secret Santa thread is going to be reopened, so no need to transfer your wish list here anymore.
